The artwork, titled “Glad Visitors,” was created by Nicholas Roerich in 1914. This genre painting, executed with tempera on canvas, belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and measures 320 x 212 cm. It is part of the collection at the Horlivka Museum of Fine Arts in Horlivka, Ukraine.
The artwork depicts a male and female figure, both adorned with halos, and clothed in ornate garments featuring intricate patterns and vibrant colors. The central focus is a stylized tree or plant, richly detailed with floral and avian motifs that draw the eye vertically. The composition and the visual elements reflect the Art Nouveau style, characterized by flowing lines and natural forms, combined with symbolic and possibly spiritual undertones.
